The archived warnings, watches and discussions in force at that minute are drawn over the scan, this one among them.
Did it verify
Not verified. The Iowa Environmental Mesonet's Cow found no qualifying storm report inside this severe thunderstorm warning while it was in force. That is not proof nothing happened: reports are thin where few people live.
Cow counts a report within 15 km of the polygon while the warning was in force: a tornado for a tornado warning; hail of 1 inch or more, a gust of 58 mph or more or wind damage for a severe thunderstorm warning; a flash flood report for a flash flood warning.

BORGHOFFWhat forecasters said that day
The local office's own words before this severe thunderstorm warning went out, as it sent them, from the Iowa Environmental Mesonet's archive of National Weather Service text.
NWS Memphis, TN wrote its last area forecast discussion before this severe thunderstorm warning went out at Mar 26, 8:50 PM CDT, 47 minutes earlier.
Area forecast discussion, Mar 26, 8:50 PM CDT, 47 minutes before
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE MEMPHIS TN 850 PM CDT SAT MAR 26 2011 .DISCUSSION...01Z SURFACE ANALYSIS PLACES A COLD FRONT/QUASI- STATIONARY BOUNDARY FROM SHREVEPORT LOUISIANA BACK THROUGH WEST POINT MISSISSIPPI THEN EAST ACROSS PORTIONS OF NORTHERN AND CENTRAL ALABAMA. AS OF 8 PM CDT...ALL OF THE MID SOUTH IS ON THE COOL SIDE OF THE BOUNDARY WITH TEMPERATURES RANGING FROM THE UPPER 30S TO LOWER 40S ACROSS NORTHEAST ARKANSAS...AND UPPER 50S TO AROUND 60 ACROSS PORTIONS OF NORTHEAST MISSISSIPPI. SHORT TERM CONVECTIVE TRENDS ARE THE MAIN CONCERN IN THIS EVENING UPDATE. LATEST SHORT TERM CONVECTIVE TRENDS SUGGEST THREAT FOR SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS WILL PERSIST FOR AT LEAST THE NEXT 1 TO 2 HOURS ACROSS PORTIONS OF NORTHEAST MISSISSIPPI...PREDOMINANTLY SOUTH AND EAST OF A LINE FROM BOONEVILLE MISSISSIPPI TO CHARLESTON MISSISSIPPI. THE MAIN THREAT FOR ANY THUNDERSTORM THAT BECOMES SEVERE WILL BE LARGE HAIL AS STORMS ARE ELEVATED DUE TO LOW LEVEL COOL AIR ALREADY IN PLACE ACROSS THE MID SOUTH. AS OF THIS DISCUSSION...00Z MODEL DATA STILL HAS YET TO ARRIVE BUT SHORT TERM MODEL DATA/TRENDS SUPPORT A MENTION OF ISOLATED RAIN SHOWERS OR DRIZZLE ACROSS THE REMAINDER OF THE MID SOUTH OVERNIGHT. ADDITIONAL FORECAST UPDATES WILL BE ISSUED AS THE OVERALL THUNDERSTORM THREAT BEGINS TO DIMINISH. UPDATED GRIDS ALREADY SENT. CJC && .PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 634 PM CDT SAT MAR 26 2011/ UPDATE... UPDATED FOR AVIATION. PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 424 PM CDT SAT MAR 26 2011/ DISCUSSION...20Z SURFACE ANALYSIS PLACES A SURFACE LOW NEAR THE ARKLATEX WITH A WARM FRONT EXTENDING EAST NORTHEAST FROM THE SURFACE LOW ACROSS SOUTHERN ARKANSAS AND THROUGH COFFEEVILLE AND AMORY MISSISSIPPI. AS OF 4 PM CDT...A LARGE TEMPERATURE GRADIENT EXISTS ACROSS THE MID SOUTH WITH TEMPERATURES REMAINING NEARLY STEADY IN THE LOWER 40S NEAR THE MISSOURI/KENTUCKY BORDER AND UPPER 70S TO LOWER 80S SOUTH OF THE SURFACE BOUNDARY TOWARDS CENTRAL MISSISSIPPI. SEVERE THUNDERSTORM POTENTIAL THIS EVENING AND PRECIPITATION TRENDS THROUGHOUT THE REMAINDER OF THE FORECAST ARE THE PREDOMINANT CHALLENGES IN THIS AFTERNOON/S FORECAST PACKAGE. SHORT TERM...(TONIGHT THROUGH MONDAY NIGHT)...WSR-88D RADAR TRENDS OVER THE PAST FEW HOURS HAVE SHOWN SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS OCCURRING MAINLY NORTH OF THE SURFACE BOUNDARY. SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS ARE EXPECTED TO DEVELOP IN THE NEXT COUPLE OF HOURS ACROSS PORTIONS OF NORTHERN AND CENTRAL MISSISSIPPI AS A SUBTLE SHORTWAVE TROUGH EMBEDDED WITHIN NEARLY ZONAL FLOW ALOFT COMBINES WITH A VERY UNSTABLE ATMOSPHERE IN PLACE ACROSS NORTH AND CENTRAL MISSISSIPPI. ALONG THE FRONT CONVECTIVE INDICIES YIELD SURFACE BASED CAPE VALUES AROUND 2000 J/KG AND LI/S BETWEEN -4 TO -5. 0-1 KM STORM RELATIVE HELICITIES AROUND 300 M2/S2 AND 0-6 KM BULK SHEAR VALUES BETWEEN 60-70 KTS SUGGEST POTENTIAL FOR LARGE HAIL...DAMAGING WINDS AND TORNADOES ARE POSSIBLE ALONG THIS BOUNDARY. CONSEQUENTLY...AREAS ALONG AND SOUTH OF A LINE FROM CHARLESTON MISSISSIPPI TO FULTON MISSISSIPPI ARE UNDER A TORNADO WATCH UNTIL 10 PM THIS EVENING. SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS WILL GRADUALLY COME TO AN END LATER TONIGHT AS THE SURFACE LOW MOVES EAST OF THE REGION. THIS WILL RESULT IN WEAK HIGH PRESSURE RETURNING FOR SUNDAY. SIGNIFICANT CHANCES WERE NEEDED TO THE FORECAST FOR SUNDAY NIGHT AS THE WRF/GFS/ECMWF MODELS ALL SHOW A DECENT SHORTWAVE TROUGH MOVING THROUGH THE MIDDLE AND LOWER MISSISSIPPI VALLEYS SUNDAY NIGHT. AS A RESULT...RAISED POPS SIGNIFICANTLY UP TO LIKELY BASED ON THESE LATEST MODEL TRENDS. ALSO...SOME ELEVATED INSTABILITY WILL BE PRESENT SUNDAY NIGHT ACROSS PORTIONS OF NORTH MISSISSIPPI TO PRODUCE SOME ELEVATED THUNDERSTORMS. FOR NOW ONLY ADDED A SLIGHT MENTION OF THUNDERSTORMS TO NORTH MISSISSIPPI SUNDAY NIGHT. LONG TERM...(TUESDAY THROUGH SATURDAY)...ECMWF/GFS MODELS CONTINUE TO SHOW ANOTHER COLD FRONT MOVING THROUGH THE LOWER MISSISSIPPI VALLEY TUESDAY AND TUESDAY NIGHT. THIS WILL BRING ANOTHER ROUND OF SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS BACK TO THE MID SOUTH. HOWEVER...SIGNIFICANT DISAGREEMENT RETURNS TO THE FORECAST FOR THE REMAINDER OF THE PERIOD AS MODELS BEGIN TO HAVE TROUBLE RESOLVING A DEEP UPPER LEVEL TROUGH MOVING THROUGH THE EASTERN UNITED STATES. INTERESTINGLY ENOUGH...THE 12Z GFS DEVELOPS A DEEP UPPER LEVEL LOW OVER THE SOUTHERN PLAINS/LOWER MISSISSIPPI VALLEY/NORTHERN GULF OF MEXICO. THIS SOLUTION IS THE EXTREME OUTLIER AND WAS NOT USED IN THIS AFTERNOON/S LONG TERM FORECAST. FOR THE TIME BEING...LOWERED POPS SLIGHTLY BEYOND WEDNESDAY BUT DID NOT MAKE LARGE CHANGES TO MAINTAIN SOME CONTINUITY UNTIL MODELS COME INTO BETTER AGREEMENT. CJC && .AVIATION... 00Z TAFS SURFACE WARM FRONT WAS LOCATED AROUND 40NM SOUTH OF TUP AT 2330Z. MAIN CONCERN IS AN EAST/WEST LINE OF TSRA OVER NORTH MS THAT WILL GRADUALLY DROP INTO THE TUP AREA AFTER AROUND 02Z. FOR THE REMAINDER OF THE MIDSOUTH TAF SITES... INCLUDING MEM... MAIN CONCERN IS POST COLD FRONTAL IFR/MVFR CLOUDS. SATELLITE SHOWED SOME ENHANCEMENT OVER AR MOVING EAST...ASSOCIATED WITH SHOWERS. THUNDER POTENTIAL WITH THIS ELEVATED BAND NOT SUFFICIENT TO PUT TS IN THE MEM SCHEDULED TAF. ONCE THE CONVECTIVE LINE LEAVES NORTHEAST MS AFTER MIDNIGHT...
